There's a wonderful abstract of an article on line compliments of Laurie Breban and Jean Dellemotte at the Sorbonne which "aims at providing a critical analysis of Sophie de Grouchy's translation and commentary of Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments . This paper focuses on Sophie de Grouchy's translation of the Theory of Moral Sentiments 1759 published in 1798." At that time her translation was not the first attempt to spread Adam Smith's moral philosophy in France. However the two previous translations did not succeed there. The first one from Marc-Antoine Eidous and entitled Metaphysique des moeurs 1764 was unanimously criticized because of its bad quality. Smith himself looked at it as responsible for the bad reception of his work across the Channel. As for the second translation 1774-75 from Jean-Louis Blavet it seems to have been poorly disseminated. This contrasts with the reputation of Grouchy's translation which was praised from the very moment of its publication for its accurateness with respect to the original text. The success was such that it has been viewed for two centuries as the definite French translation of the Theory of Moral Sentiments. And Grouchy is even sometimes considered as "Smith's best-known contemporary translator." <br/><br/> F. Buisson hardcover books
